About the Unit
The experimental fish farming facility comprises a complex of fifty experimental ponds totalling almost 7 ha, six handling ponds of various sizes, and a fish farming facility using both flow-through and recirculation systems. It also includes an outdoor trough breeding facility with sixtyeight tanks of different types for breeding fish and crayfish.
The water supply source for the ponds and flow-through systems is the mill head of the Blanice River.
Our Expertise
The workplace is used by employees and students of individual laboratories to carry out experiments focused mainly on research into aquaculture breeding technologies, with considerable attention paid primarily to the following areas:
- intensive aquaculture methods, including recirculation systems
- fish reproduction, including hormonal and environmental stimulation
- early stage rearing of commercial and endangered fish species, including optimisation of environmental conditions and nutrition
- applied fisheries hydrobiology
- food biology of fish in ponds and open waters
- the impact of piscivorous predators on fish farms
- biology and monitoring of native and non-native crayfish species
